Older Lyrics

Six years old, I had a dream last night

I was running through town past the city lights

I can't remember what I was running from

But I knew it was something so much more than this

Been feeling a weight and a heaviness

Oh God, I'm too young for this

My bright white dreams have all turned blue

I tend to overthink all the things that I can't do

I'm always looking over shoulder

Never drawing outside the lines

I never thought of getting older

But for all my running I was left behind

Stuck in the middle of a dream I had last night

Twelve years old, I couldn't sleep last night

So is this a shelter or a compromise?

Oh, cause it looks like peace, it's a scene I read

I tend to overthink all the things I should've said

I'm always looking over shoulder

Never drawing outside the lines

I never thought of getting older

Yeah, but for all my running I was left behind

Stuck in the middle of a dream I had last night

What if I never get older?

What if I never get over?

What if I never get older?

What if I never get over?

What if I never get older?

What if I never get, oh

Twenty years old, are my dreams all gone?

Cause fear is a devil, not a simple song

Well, I'm not who I think, I'm a memory

So as I sleep don't let my dreams get ahead of me

I'm always looking over shoulder

Never drawing outside the lines

I never thought of getting older

For all my running I was left behind

Stuck in the middle of a dream I had
